I have a very silly cosmetic questions. How can I change the way gender is displayed? I want it to be a sprite rather than a font. Thanks to whoever knows.

Also, I'm having a lot of trouble with custom items. For some reason, it will accept one name and not another. For example, the item was originally titled "EARING," and I later wanted to correct the spelling by adding an extra 'r,' but it will not accept "EARRING." I reverted it and it will still accept "EARING" so I'm really confused. Then, I tried to change the name to "LOCKET" and I've tried all kinds of numbers. I think I have everything right, so I'm totally confused.

poccil is concentrating on bringing the mechanics of the Pokemon games to us, which is no mean feat. Imagine yourself doing that... weaker people would probably be robbed of the magic of Pokémon, having to know how every little detail works. If he were to add all of the battle animations (which if he were to do properly he would have to add all of the D/P moves, look at all the animations in some form and then convert them from the pokemons 30 (???) FPS to RMXPs 20. There was a project to create the battle animations within the community but I haven't seen it's progress. If it were to be done it would require participation and organisation from a large group of people, as well as the acquisition of sprites that just aren't out there at the moment. This stuff doesn't realise itself, so be glad we have what we have. I'm sorry if that sounded like a rant but I think we should be immensely grateful for what has been created so far.

1. I know Poccil is doing a lot of work on this starterkit and I appreciate his work, but the animation is not like some scripts we can do by learning RGSS. Therefore, it's fairly important to include this feature in the starterkit since it's far more difficult to become an artist than a scripter.

2. I'd say it would be great if Poccil intends to add D/P moves, but it's not a must thing for most of us and the moves animation can still be made w/o Pokemon D/P moves. Btw, like I said before, it's much easier for we game makers to add D/P moves by ourselves than making animation.

3. I understand how hard it is to carry out a project like this and I'm simply giving an advice or feedback as a pokemon essentials user. I don't quite mind if my suggestion fails to work so it's not necessary for you to write this many words trying to educate me, right?

Take a look at the PokeBattle_Battle script in the script editor. It contains all the functions for the Balls. I haven't got the game on this computer, but from what I saw, it shouldn't be too complicated to impliment if you know what function correspondes to the stat.

How do I add more Region Maps? I need to be able to Expand my Region Maps. I got it to Expand but I am unable to SAVE the locations and ultimately, unable to use the "Fly" HM. When ever I choose "FLY" it crashes and gives me this error:

I am working on a game called "Pokemon Adventure" I have Over 2 Regions so you can see why I need to be able to expand them.
Current Region include: KANTO, JOHTO, HOENN, (Possibly SINNOH),OREE,VAGIN(My Own Reigion),SEVII ISLANDS(Both A,B,and,C),ORANGE ISLANDS,HARDROCK ISLAND(Another Original One), and ISLAND CHART(For the Odds and Ends Islands that I make) Even if I forget about adding the ISLAND CHART one we are still looking at, 8 Maps.

*I also need to know how to make those "Over Under" Bridges. In Sinnoh, there is one Route where there are 3 Levels of Over Under Bridges. This will be a pain to do. The route I am talking about is the one with the dense fog where you have to use "Fog Clear" to get rid of.
*I am going to do SINNOH last for that reason.

check notes.html under message system.

now i was reading the notes on the map it says the map is mad in a 16 by 16 space. what in the world does that mean. (not a graphics guy) could soome one show me what it means or explain it to me?

Hey, I have a problem, I am making maps on the starter kit, and one of the maps I created has the Rain effect active without my making it happen like though an event, how do I get rid of this effect, at least on this map?

Can u explain how it works? I've created a xml file in wich I put the names of two images of the same pokemon but in two different positions and I used the command prompt to use animmaker. But it has juste created two empty images animation.png and animation2.png....

as somebody mentioned before, they wanted to add more player metadata than what was available. i've looked through the scripts and seen meta data player used in a few other scripts. if one were to add more meta data players, would it still work with the other scripts? and how would one go about putting more players in? below is the metadata script from PokemonMap lines 415 to 437.

would i just add another -1 in maxpocketsize, another 0 to choices and @pockets[6]=[]to this? i believe i already grasp what else needs to be done for this.

i was also wondering where the piece of script is for the exclamation mark that appears above the trainer before battle. i moved the animation down on the list of animations and now it doesn't appear before trainer battles. i need to find this piece of script to change it accordly.

also, would there be a way to force a pokemon within the player's party to evolve? i've played around with scripts and conditional branches with no avail.

i was also wondering how pbDebugBattle is supposed to be called. i tried script and conditional branch and neither worked. getting this to work would help alot with the battle animations.

i was also curious as to when different pokemon forms will be implemented. this would be a big plus in the next release. :D

thanks for your answers in advance.

*EDIT*
i just noticed that the animation editor in the editor/debug menu doesn't save any animations. is anybody else having this problem?

*EDIT2*
ummm...i also need to know where the script for the grass & dust animation are, so i can change them accordly. >_<

would for example, MetadataPlayerE go under =12? and so forth for other players?

also, how would one input another pocket or two on the bag?

*EDIT*
i editted the PokemonBag script so it would have another pocket, but it didn't work. i didn't have any errors what so ever. but when i tried to go to that certain area of the bag, it would close without cause back to the map. i don't believe i missed anything unless the bag script has pieces in other scripts. any answers?
